This print captures the grave developments unfolding in Mosul during a tumultuous period. The image depicts a view of Zakho, a peaceful little town where some of the fleeing Christians find themselves in a state of destitution. It is reported that Turks are driving these displaced individuals northwards, adding to their already dire circumstances. The monochrome composition adds depth and intensity to the scene, emphasizing the gravity of the situation faced by these persecuted communities. As we gaze upon this haunting photograph taken on 16 September 1925, we cannot help but feel empathy for those caught up in this tragic chapter of history. Amidst the turmoil, it is intriguing to learn that silk weaving serves as Zakho's main industry. This detail offers a glimpse into the resilience and determination of its inhabitants who strive for normalcy amidst chaos. This powerful image from Central News encapsulates an era between wars when Europe was grappling with political unrest and religious tensions were escalating.
